Mid-line priced jewel case edition. "Their 1968 first classic album (originally on Minit) is something of an electric mayhem and freeform freakout. Art students/designers Michael English and Nigel Weymouth, whose striking graphics were seen on many bright and trippy posters for psychedelic clubs like the UFO and Middle Earth in London, were the creative talent behind this band along with DJ and manager Guy Stevens. Not far from what the Godz were creating in NYC, an underrated document of its time. A band like this, incorporating flower power, love and peace, acid and psychedelic rock lifestyle, tainted with freak out, drop out, hippy and underground trends, could not have existed in any other era than the late sixties. The Heavy Metal Kids, the alter ego of the proto-Spooky Tooth group Art (comprised of Mike Harrison, Greg Ridley, Mike Kellie and Luther Grosvenor) appeared backing. But who was The Human Host? Original artwork."
